Just cant function

[MummyToAmberx]

Anyone suffering with bad ms and just cant function?

Ive tried all sorts to control it slightly but nothing is working.

Im really getting concerned now its been 7 days i havent eaten more than 1 full meals worth a day (nibbling through out) bringing up lots of water/stomach bile but not drinking barely anything.
Crazy stomach pains/chest pains.
I just cant do anything apart from lie down and sleep.
Going to go visit docs tomorrow this is bloody terrible.

Anyone got any suggestions to help pick me up a bit? x

Have you tired those bands you wear on your wrist? I've heard really good things about them.

 

[MummyToAmberx]

Yeah tried the sea bands they dont appear to work for me x

I'm sorry Hopefully your doctor can help you out tomorrow! Have you tried drinking ginger ale? That helped my stomach a lot

 

[MummyToAmberx]

No i havent, ive tried ginger tea thats for ms and eating ginger biscuits but they just come back up.

Thank you x

I've used essential oils (young living is safe to digest) I just do 1 drop of peppermint and it seems to help with nausea/gas.

I'm not sure about ms as I've not suffered too much, but I have had the real flu for the last week. I've not eaten since Saturday morning and am just barely drinking enough.

All I'm doing is sleeping, literally ALL day long. I feel so incredibly weak and it's just getting worse. I know I feel weak because I'm not eating.

Anyway I saw the doctor on Tuesday he explained that not eating wasn't a huge concern right now, as long as im drinking that was more important. He said that baby will be taking whatever it needs from my reserves and so while it will make me feel like rubbish and weaker and weaker, baby won't be suffering at all.

If you think your sickness is more than just your average ms though then it could be worth seeing someone to make sure you don't need antisickness medication, otherwise I'd say as long as your drinking and taking a decent vitamin supplement then you'll be fine and hopefully the ms will pass soon.

This is now my 7th full day of being in bed and 4 whole days since I've eaten a single thing. I just want to feel back to normal and have some energy back.

Hugs x

B6! Take 100mg of b6 everyday. It saved my life! It will take a couple of days to kick in, but I promise you will love it! Good luck

oh my your having a rough time too. Are you drinking? I hope you feel better soon.
I have tablets but they aint helping (plus not stopping down long enough)
Im not taking any vits not something ive done before but ill look into it thanks.

Nothing stopped down so far today, ive tried drink more water but i just throw up more violent. Im the same been lying down / sleeping last week. x

Thank you hun, I know it's from different reasons but I really do know how you feel

It's miserable. I'm drinking just about enough. When I saw the doctor on Tuesday he did say my tongue was too dry and I needed to at least double my fluid intake. I'm trying but I just don't have the appetite or want to fill up on drink.

I've lost a stone since I got ill. If I wasn't pregnant I'd be loving it! Lol.

Vitamins could be worth a try. Really hope things improve and you feel better soon. It's rotten when you can't even enjoy your pregnancy.

Have you tried sipping at water little and often rather than trying to drink a lot at once? My ms isn't that bad but that's what I normally do during a stomach bug.

Were on the same page! Currently 11 weeks and I have to vomit literally at least twice a day and I couldn't stand up I just lie in bed, whenever I do stand up I would throw up. I lost 5 lbs in 2 weeks !

Aww bless you too. Are you feeling better now? Did yours pass?

Mine is min of 2 to max of 6, so exhausting. x

I don't really have much MS, mostly nausea... but it's tough to function at work with the queasiness, heartburn, fatigue and backaches. I'm totally under performing right now...
